About this document

Multidimensional Poverty Analysis Methods by Aishatu Musa Abba is a document available to read on EtoBox.

There is interest in analyzing multidimensional poverty by looking at deprivations across domains like health, education, and well-being in addition to income-based poverty. However, there is disagreement on how best to measure these deprivations. Some propose using a single index that combines dimensions, while others advocate a dashboard approach without weights. The document argues these are a false dichotomy and presents alternatives like multivariate stochastic dominance and dashboard plus Venn diagram
